Leveraging Generative AI for Software Productivity
Executive leaders across the globe have been asking a relatively simple yet profound question: Can we leverage generative AI to transform our business, enterprise, or industry? For software-based companies, focus has either been on differentiating their product and service offerings using this new technology. But how about leveraging generative AI to improve team productivity and efficiency? This may be possible but how do you measure its success? What are some of the key use cases within business analysis, development, and testing that software teams can use? Are there any pitfalls...

Prompt Engineering for Software Practitioners
With the sudden rise of ChatGPT and large language models (LLMs), practitioners are using these tools for all aspects of engineering. This includes leveraging LLMs for creating software artifacts such as requirements documents, source code, and tests; reviewing them for issues and making corrective suggestions, and analyzing or summarizing results or outcomes. However, if LLM's are not fed good prompts describing the task that the AI is supposed to perform, their responses can be inaccurate and unreliable. Join Tariq King as he teaches you how to craft high-quality AI prompts and...
This Is Our Agent, We Make the Call
NewAgents! Finally, a term that might be even more over-hyped than AI! But what exactly are Agents, and more importantly, how do you use them? Where do Agents fit within the overall AI toolkit? What capabilities do they add, and what tasks can they help us perform? Dona and Jeremiah will help you gain a solid understanding of Agents and the fundamental components of an Agent-based AI system. You’ll learn key design principles for Agents, as well as when to leverage them and scenarios where they may not be the best choice. We'll cover how to identify business problems that are well-suited for...

Testing Powered by AI/ML Synthetic Test Data: A Game Changer
The session covers a testing approach that utilizes a new age Test Data Management (TDM) technique which learns from production data. Machine learning analyzes the data to create a model capable of generating synthetic data with identical source data attributes. Multiple learning iterations refine the model, enhancing its accuracy with each cycle. The data model incorporates security measures like differential privacy, enabling safe movement to lower environments. Later, generative AI leverages this model to produce desired volumes of test data for various testing types, including...
Mastering Prompt Engineering: Unlocking the Power of Prompt Patterns and Meta-Prompting Technique
As AI becomes increasingly central to professional workflows, the ability to craft effective prompts has emerged as a crucial skill. While many users struggle with trial-and-error approaches, this session introduces a systematic framework for prompt engineering based on proven patterns and and meta-prompting techniques. You'll learn how to apply specific prompt patterns such as persona, meta-language creation, and flipped interaction, and more, to achieve consistently better results. You will then explore meta-prompting - a powerful technique where AI assists in generating, refining, and...

The AI-Powered Leader: Creating Alignment and Redefining Leadership in an Autonomous Era
Traditional leadership has relied on intuition, manual processes, and fragmented feedback loops. But what if AI could fundamentally reshape how we lead—creating inherent alignment, removing hierarchical bottlenecks, and enabling decentralized decision-making? Imagine an autonomous AI companion that analyzes patterns, prioritizes coaching needs, and adapts in real time to foster self-organization, continuous learning, and leadership at every level. In this session, we’ll explore how AI-driven leadership models can replace rigid hierarchies with dynamic, data-informed decision-making,...
